MUSIC AND DRAMA.
ARCADIA.

AhN<ADAAs
Last evening little Corinne, so familiar as
a child actress to our people, now a young
lady, made her appearance at City Hall in
Gilps extravaganza, "Arcadia"--a conglom-
Grafton of burlesque, comedy, comic opera,
farce and spectacle The music is by Joh1
]. Braham, and is bright and catchy Cor
inne sings. dances and acts with ease and
grace, and what is more she is not an imta-
tor. The chorus and ballet are composed of
pretty girls who sing and dance well, show
good drill in the AmaZonian marches, are
dressed in attractive costumes and form pref
ty stage pictures. The audience, though not
large, was well composed and greatly appre-
ciated the performance. There are many
spicy local hits and the wit throughout, the
highest. The orchestra, Mr.. Grimmer's,
gave an excellent rendition of the music, the
waltZes between the acts being especially
pretty. Arcadia is good and it should be
greeted by a good house tonight. 1t will al
so be repeated Saturday afternoon and eve
ming.
UPSIDE DOWN.
Last night the Days appeared at Port
land Theatre in their new play entitled
upside Down." the plot of the piece having
already been given in these columns. There
was large audience present and the laugh
ter was constant, while many of the songs
were repeated on demand. II is unnecessa-
ry to attempt to anayze the play. 1t serves
as the medium for these agile brothers. the
Days, to perform any number of wonderful
gymnastlc feats. The imitation circus in the
second act is very good take off of the real
thing. The authors of the play, Messrs.
Harris and McNally, were evidently much
gratifed at the manner III which the piece
was received. Upside Down" will be re-
peated tonight.
MICHAEL sTRoGoFF.
The sale of seats for Michael Strogoff will
begin at Portland Theatre today. The New
York Herald says: "As brought out by the
Andrews Company it is both majestic and
massive representation. Its appointments
are grand and picturesque in chromatic de-
tail, and there is peculiar fascination about
the successive scenic accompaniment that
defy imitation. 1t is an imposing spectacle
of rude barbaric significance, attended with
the delicate cOloring of Asiatic Imagination
and the surprising of richness of Mohamme-
dan fancy. 1t is produced without any
abatement of its original charms, and pre-
serves all the fascination which character
lied 1t throughout the varied romantic Incl
dents of its scenic contrasts"
GoRMAN's MINsTRELs.
The Germans. or old Haverly Minstrels,
will appear at City Hall next Monday and
Tuesday evenings, and there was a good ad-
vance sale at Stockbridge's yesterday The
crmpany is under the management of Mr..
Wright a Portland boy, and there is pref
ty good indication of its excellence.

A Serious Accident.

As the steamer City of Richmond of the
Portland, Mt. Desert and Machias Steam
ship Company, was making her landing at
Machiaspolt last Saturday evening, about
fifty people were standing on the slip. When
about twenty-five had landed from the boat.
the chain from the hosting gear suddenly
gave way, and the slip with its heavy load
about Twenty-Five feet to the water. Float
ing gripsacks, the umbrellas, and the drench-
ed passengers made scene of confusion.
But owing to the diligence of the officers of

A Rough Voyage.

The three masted schooner Herman P.
Ogden, from Georgia to this port with hard
pine lumber, had very rough voyage. She
is large vessel and well built and but fol
this she would probably have suffered even
more than she did. A heavy sea swept over
her, breaking every spoke in her wheel and
rendering it, for time, useless. The rail.
ing aft was broken and the vessel was very
severely wrenched. A new steering apara.
tus was made and the schooner succeeded
in reaching this port safely.

Potato Rot.

Reports from all parts Of the State say
that this years crop of potatoes are rotting
badly. The peronospora infestan, vegeta-
BILE parasite, which causes the rot, fourishes
in damp, warm weather. and this season has
been remarkably favorable for its growth
Mr. j. l. Libby, the produce dealer, has just
received his first car load of potatoes; they
are not of the best quality, and are rotting
very badly. James l.. West, of Falmouth,
planted 65 bushels of potatoes. and his crop
has rotted to such an extent that he does not
deem it worth digging. From another quar-
ter 1t was learned that a man who planted
one acre to potatoes harvested only nine
bushels of good TIMERS

DALLAS TEXAS. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER g. 1887.

IDENTITY consider the hundreds of Indi-
an ponies captured as trophies of war,
as the animals have been seized upon
at will, and are now being ridden by
the cowboys all over the country.
A fine white horse belonging to
Colorow was paraded around the
streets of Meeker yesterday, gayly
decorated. His ears had been pierced
and red, white and blue ribbons tied
in them. Another fine horse belong
ing to the Ute, Gus, was ridden into
Glenwood Springs.
Unless the Indians change their dis
position the only trouble likely to
come will be oyer the 800 ponies aud
5000 sheep which the whites now hold.
The Government has ordered them
turned over to the Indians, but it is
not believed they will ever be found.

PerilOus Situation.

ties from Chambers Creek yesterday
report the three families who were
compelled to take refuge in tree tops
were all safely landed on the south
side of the creek by parties who
brought up boat from lake near
Italy. There were seven in all, some
of them small children, and it was diff
ficult to keep them in the tree tops,
which were swinging to and fro by
the wind and the raging flood beneath.
Tho telephone agent, Il. V. Fowler,
who has been repairing the line, says
the water flowed over the top of the
wire, which was eighteen feet above
the ground. The rescued families re-
covered their wagons which had
lodged in the tree tops aud all their
stock was saved except one OK. No
such floods have ever been known in
Ellis county before, even to the Oldest
